Brrrrr.....

While it's the usual hot, tropical weather here in the Philippines, in other parts of the world, it's actually freezing cold. It's a good thing some stalls actually sell winter stuff (which we actually don't use over here) like scarves, beanies, thermal underwear and winter coats. If you've decided to vacation in some snowy part of the world, probably indulging in winter delights like skiing, better go prepared because you definitely do not want to risk health problems from the cold (especially since we come from a year-round warm climate).

If, however, you've decided to immigrate and your date of departure is at a warmer time of the year, don't lug along heavy winter wear and just reserve the extra poundage for more important (and maybe sentimental stuff?). You can buy your winter clothes there when the season calls for it.
